    Nearing disaster in New York - please take action NOW to prevent e-cigarette ban.

    There never was a federal ban, nor a US Supreme Court case. Perhaps you are thinking of the litigation that has been ongoing in federal court in the case of SE and Njoy (now just Njoy) against the FDA. See...

    Nearing disaster in New York - please take action NOW to prevent e-cigarette ban.

    I can only assume from your question that you don't realize that, fortunately, the ban was not passed. The video at the beginning of this thread was of the Assembly passing it. However, the Senate never acted on it during the term that ended last summer, so therefore NY is banless for now...

    Homework: Data collection. Would love 100+ volunteers please.

    Just a question, and/or a suggestion, Big Hitter. Why count drags, when that is so labor intensive and likely to be inaccurate, as it would be so easy for people to lose count over any extended period of time? It is so much easier, and thus likely to be much more accurate, for people to...

    The PACT Act is not a "regulation". It is a law. And the application of ANY given law depends on the particular definitional language of the law itself. And what you are missing is that the PACT Act was NOT written to apply to "tobacco products" generically. It was written, as you can see...

    California Ban

    Although, I do think it is considerably less likely that an outright sales ban will be proposed now, since Corbett's bill banning sales to minors only was just recently passed and signed into law (Corbett was also the sponsor of the first, vetoed ban on all sales). No budget yet, but several...

    You're not getting it either. When I said that the term "smokeless tobacco" product was specifically defined in the PACT Act, and would not include e-cigs, that was based on the statute itself, NOT on a guess. Here is the PACT Act definition of "smokeless tobacco" products: "SMOKELESS...

    You still seem to not be getting the point of my post. Those USPS restrictions you quote are now in existence specifically because of the PACT Act. But the PACT Act ONLY applies to "cigarettes" and "smokeless tobacco products". BOTH of those terms are specifially DEFINED in the PACT Act, and...

    What ever happened to the ban in new york

    Assembly bill passed. Senate bill stalled in Senate Health Committee. Senate Health Committee just held a public hearing on Sept. 23. E-cigs had four defenders speaking at that hearing. New York State Senate...

    LowThudd and Vaporhottie - that is misinformation you are spreading! The PACT Act applies ONLY to the products specifically defined and described therein. And that is: conventional cigarettes, and "smokeless tobacco products" (a term expressly defined wthin the statute, and designed to cover...

    SE, NJoy vs FDA -- Discussion

    Katherine, the process in an appeal such as this is that after the oral argument that just occurred, the judges will now deliberate to make their decision. One of them will be assigned to write the opinion, and the decision will be released in due course. I would expect the earliest we would see...

    So we've got Rush Limbaugh on our side. Now we need Michael Moore

    I can't ever see being on the same side of anything as someone who could say that. (I can't ever see being on the same side of anything as Rush L.) :shock: Oh wait, we're both here, aren't we. We both support the continued lawful availability of ecigs, don't we. You see the absurdity of...

    News article I wrote for The River Journal (Idaho/Montana)

    Cathy - a wonderful article! I loved it so much, and it was such a perfect counterpoint, that I had to point Andrew Schneider to it (the author of that despicable AOL piece). My comment on his blog is still in moderation, so I don't know if he will let it stay, but here's the link so you can see...

    Is vapor made up of 99 % water? Supplier business card explanation for vaping

    I agree with you Pav that the card in question is not giving out accurate information. Other than Dr. Laugesen's various reports (http://www.healthnz.co.nz/Portland2008ECIG.pdf and http://www.healthnz.co.nz/RuyanCartridgeReport30-Oct-08.pdf), we have very little solid information on the chemical...

    E-cigs on Good Day Atlanta this morning-- positive press!

    How do you know that he didn't do some homework on being asked to do the interview - that he didn't read Dr. Nitzkin's comprehensive petition to the FDA, full of citations to other resources, or some of Dr. Siegel's writings, or Dr. Laugesen's several reports ... ?

    Deadliest Catch Interview With Josh Harris

    Dee, the "Orient tobacco absolute" listed as an ingredient of the eliquid on InLife's site (as less than 1%) is actually a flavoring derived from tobacco, an "essence" if you will, used by many eliquid makers for their tobacco flavored eliquids. However, if you go down their ingredients list to...

    Deadliest Catch Interview With Josh Harris

    LOL. Unfortunately, that's a load. Or simply a sign that InLife did a pretty bad job of educating its representative. :p
